The book starts out with a girl with magic eye on a flying ship to catch magic sand only she can see. She has no memory of how she grew up. At the start of the journey a man destroys the ship, but safes her. During the book(s) it is reveled that the man and she herself are basically here to destroy humanity because humanity threatens magic. Instead she decides to destroy all magic herself at the end of the last book.

Edit:

Humanity retreated to safe parts of the world where magic isn't as strong. I think these parts are mostly cities and used completely by humans. Because the magic found in the wild and the land itself is deadly to humans, they can only traverse it using flying ships. Further they use these ships to gather magic gathered in storms to power their machinery. There is also a part where she travels with the demon boy through the wilderness which is super magical and beautiful.

Lack of Motivation - How to be more motivated? (lemmy.ml)

TLDR: Have you any tips or resources about how to be motivated to do things which you enjoy having ADHD in mind?

Hey, recently I had to stop my ADHD meds for a while.

Additionally I have a lot of time right now bec. of medical reasons and I try to do things I want to do instead of proctrastinating, so whenever I realize that I'm just doing stuff without actually enjoying them, I try to sit back, make me some tee and think about what I want to do. Like not in the future, but right now.

But the thing is, very often I just sit there and there is nothing I want to do. I try to enjoy doing nothing but it is kind of frustrating sitting there and thinking about what I want to do and nothing comes up.

I wanted to ask if this is a me thing or an ADHD related thing, and if so how you manage that. I either am completly stressed out with 100 projects at the same time or doing nothing and having no motivation to do anything. How can I be motivated to do things I enjoy? How to find things which I enjoy without sitting there and stressing out that currently I'm not motivated to do anything?

Thats very gender essentialist. Gender expression is not the same AS gender identity. Don't push your own experiences on others. I for example never had a femboy-phase and am still trans femm. Does this make me less trans? A trans guy who likes dresses, is he less of a man? No! What about non binary people? You basically say that femininity is not for men which is bullshit. People don't always know their gender or are exploring, but identity changes with your own idea of self. If you say "I'm a femboy" and then later on say "I'm a trans girl", both are true because Identity can change! If you say I Identify as lesbian, later on then discover that ur bi, that doesn't mean ur previous Identity was wrong, it just means that u now identify differently. If someone says they identify with a gender, than that's that. You don't get to tell them they are wrong.

Years ago, when I was still a HUGE Egg, I answered: Not yet.

Still makes me laugh when I think about it.

If we all collectively decide to drop 10 IQ points, then they have to readjust all future measurements so that 100 is the mean again..... That means we all stay at the same IQ and get free money. Easy
